FORM 8915F-T

I had normal distribution from my IRA. I can't efile as TT somehow decided that distribution is disaster related and keeps blocking efiling, as I have to take extension now, because IRS did not finalize disaster related guidelines.

I had that distribution deleted and re - entered. I had CLEARLY marked that no, distribution is not related to disaster.

The very moment I get to efiling, I am back to the same problem. Marked as disaster, take extension.

Any ideas how to fix this?

You will need to delete the "Qualified 2020 Disaster Retirement Distribution and Repayment Worksheet"  (8915E wks).

 

 In TurboTax Desktop:

 

  1. Switch to Forms mode on the top
  2. Scroll down and select "8915E wks" (can be 8915E-T or 8915E-S)
  3. Click "delete" and confirm the deletion
  4. Switch to Step-by-Step and run the smart check again

 

 

 

 

In TurboTax Online:

 

  1. Open or continue your return in TurboTax.
  2. In the left menu, select "Tax Tools" and then "Tools".
  3. In the pop-up window Tool Center, select "Delete a form".
  4. Select "Delete" next to "Qualified 2020 Disaster Retirement Distr" and follow the instructions.

Thank you. I just came from that view. I found that form. Where is Delete button? Silly as it may sound - can't find it. TT Premier for PC. Screenshot would be helpful.

When clicking on the form it will open up on the right side. The delete button will be on the bottom left of the form.

OK, so I finally killed that form.

One, that needs to be deleted, is not 8915F-T. That's the one that shows error message next to it in the forms view.

One that, actually has to be deleted is  one above it - 8915T, and it does not have red ! next to it. Apparently, 8915T contains erroneous 8915F-T in it and, simply deleteing that subfoirm, produces no result.

So delete 8915 T. My return was just transferred, as it should.
